Pretty experiment Geranium. I have that one too, so I must go and see how it is doing. I have grown it from seed too.

I think it's the prettiest Polemonium I have, Cherry. How did you collect seed? I'd love to have a go at growing more. I'm back on my laptop - and tinypic has just worked here! So - here's my new Daphne cneorum. This is the Polemonium which is supposed to be pink! Polemonium reptans 'Pink Dawn'Erodium manescavii Cotoneaster x suecicus 'Juliette' Deutzia gracilis Allium 'Purple Sensation' On the bank - my Acer palmatum is planted in a sea of white flowers.

polemoniums grow quite easily from seed G, I'm growing purple rain, not sure if they come true or not yet.

Lovely pics Geranium, I wouldn't mind one of those variegated Cotoneasters. Never seen one but I'll keep an eye out.

I had seedlings growing in the garden of the P. Purple Rain, but I had grown it on in a pot too. Mine had to be the real type Grindle because I don't have any others. I tend to do that to keep seed the same colour.
Yes I like that Cotoneaster and I just love the Daphne, but I am a sucker for Daphnes.

Grindle, you might be looking forward to a horrible dirty colour, or they could be gorgeous. Keep an eye on them.

I will, I know the white comes true as I grew them last year, it's really the apricot one I want more of ;D I know definately the Stairway to Heaven doesn't come true from seed as I was talking to the man from Barracott about them, so I'll have to wait until the plant is big enough to split
